Find-PSResource should return info telling us if a module is replaced, superseded, deprecated and similar.
Find-PSResource
I don't know where this has to be solved:
The problem still remains: Some modules are deprecated or replaced/superseded, with no way of telling.
To be sure I got all relevant modules I do (simplified) Find-Module -Name '<parent>.*', but for Az.* it will return replaced/deprecated modules too.
Find-Module -Name '<parent>.*'
Az.*
AzureRM
AzureRM.*
Az
Az.Insights
Az.Monitor
Az.Profile
Az.Accounts
ThreadJob
Microsoft.PowerShell.ThreadJob
Microsoft.PowerShell.PSResourceGet
Find-PSResource -Repository 'PSGallery' -Type 'Module' -Name 'Az.Profile' | ConvertTo-Json | Set-Clipboard
This has been discussed a bit in #1314
